-TV / WEDNESDAY EVENING, JUNE 18, 1902. / THE MINNEAPOLIS JOURNAL. DID I E BOY GOMEZ Further Information From Charles M. Dobson. HE IS A FRIEND OF GEN. WOOD A n d R e s e n t s A n y I n t l n i a t i o n of Cor r u p t i o n o n t h e P a r t of T h a t Official. Mmw York Sun Socoiml Sorvicm New York, June 18.Charles M. Dob son, who was quoted in a dispatch from New Orleans as saying that General Gomez had been paid $25,000 by the United States government to stay out of the race for the presidency of the republic of Cuba, aid to-day that he had not been correctly quoted. Mr. Dobson lives in New York, and returned from New Orleans yester day. He was especially indignant over the intimation that General Wood person ally or ot his own volition, had done any thing discreditable. Mr. Dobson re affirmed the allegations, however, that General Gomez had received large sums of money from this government as the price of peace on his part and that of his followers. Mr. Dobson said: * "General Gomez was in a position at the close of the Spanish-American war to cause this government a great deal ol trouble. He bad the native lighting ele ment of the eastern end of the island completely under his control. He did not cause any such trouble, and from May to November, 1900, he was paid at least $19,00.0how much more the records at Washington will show. "So far as General Wood is concerned, I have the utmost confidence in his integ rity. He is an able man, so far as the administration of affairs in Cuba is con cerned, and thoroughly honest. He is my personal friend, and I regret that any aspersions on his character have been in correctly attributed to me." EUROPEAN CROPS T h e y A r e D a m a g e d b y F r o s t s a n d E x c e s s i v e R a i n s . Paris, June 18.There is considerable anxiety regarding the state of the crops and vineyards, in consequence of the un interrupted cold and rainy weather during the la3t two months. M. Flammeran, the astronomer, says there has been no such disastrous spring time since 1S52. Snow has been falling for the last four days on the slopes of the Pyrenees and in the neighborhood of Perpignan. The farmers in these districts are in a state of consternation. The cantons of Mont Louis, Salaigouse and Ipras have bees visited by unpre cedented frosts for thK: time of the year. The farmers in these districts are in despair. Vienna, June 18.The unprecedented and persistent cold weather in Austro Hungary is causing great apprehension among those interested in agriculture. Prospects for cereals are dubious. Berlin, June 18.While snow is falling In the Alps, there are cold rains here and over a large part of Germany. The rye, now in flower, has sustained much dam age. The fruits and vegetables, which were frostbitten a few weeks ago, are ow suffering from excessive moisture. With short interludes of sunshine rain has been falling for the past six weeks. ILLINOIS DEMOCRATS J o h n F. Hopjkins W i n s a Hot F i g h t W i t h H a r r i s o n . Springfield, 111., June 18.-Clerk of the su preme court, John L. Pickering of Springfield. State treasurer, George W. Duddleatou of Chicago. Superintendent of public instruction, Anson b. Bliss of Hillsboro. Trustees of the state university, Dr. Julia Holmes Smith of Chicago. J. A. White of Urbana and S. S. Paxton of Monmouth. The foregoing ticket was nominated by the democratic state convention yester day and John P. Hopkins was re-elected chairman of the state central committee: after a bitter contest'with Carter H. Har rison of Chicago. The election of Chairman Hopkins pro duced the only fight in the convention. Impassioned speeches were made in fa vor, of both repreasntatives and the ad herents of both jeered according to their pride or dislike of the speaker's attitude. The delegates at times were frantic and criticisms highly personal in their nature were frequently exchanged. The committee on resolutions had a long and stormy session before their report was finally adoptee. The principal fignt was over the first plank in the platform. As originally drafted this read: The democrats of Illinois, in state conven tion, declare their adherence to the funda mental principles of the democratic party as laid down in the declaration of Independence, and the constitution of the United States affirmed at our last national convention. This was considered by' the opponents of silver as a too specific declaration in favor of the Kansas City platform, and, headed by John C. Richberg and Adolf Kraus of Chicago, they fought it. For three hours the debate went on and the plank was amended to read: "All funda mental principles of the democratic party, etc., repeatedly affirmed by past demo cratic conventions." No effort was made to bring in the name of W. J. Bryan. The platform denounces trusts and de mands a. revision of the tariff, opposes ship subsidies, extends congratulations to Cuba and deplores the assassination of President McKinley. As t o the Philippines the platform says: We believe that the American government should at once announce to the Philippines that it is not our policy to'permanently re tain their country, but as soon as hostilities shall cease, and a stable government be es tablished the United States will recognize the independence of the Philippine islands as was done in the case of Cuba.

New Orleans, June 18.The latest news from the republic of Salvador, via Gautemala, indicates a state of frenzy aroused by .the. recent decision of the "Washington court of arbitration in the Burrell case. The president of the.iittle republic and most of the members or the national assembly have signed a pro nunclamento to the people, declaring that the decision of the court was a scan dal and a crime that the judges were bribed that the Salvadorean representa tives-were treated in a scandalous fash ion, and that Dr. Zaldivar, one of the Sal vadorean representatives was recreant to his trust, and is now in Europe to escape the results of his actions.

MAINE DEMOCRATS T h e y L i s t e n to C h a m p C l a rk a n d W a n t to Let t h e P h i l i p p i n e s Go. Bangor, Me., June IS.The democratic state convention nominated S. W. Gould of Skowhegan for governor, adopted a plat form which deals at some length with na tional issues and listened to a political address by Congressman Champ Clark of Missouri. The platform says: We deplore the policy which has created occasion for acts of cruelty and barbarism in the Philippines which no party dares uphold. We denounce the .'policy .of imperialism as practiced by Spain in Cuba, by the British government in America before the revolution, by Great Britain in South Africa and by the republican administration in the Philippines. We believe that the liberation of Cuba was forced by the democratic party, and that the same liberty should be granted to the Philip pines. Mr. Clark, of Missouri said: While Mr. Pa^ne, the floor leader of the republicans, ard his faction shout "Let well enough alone," they, inconsistently with their own theory, brought in a bill to tinker the blessed Dingley rates by reducing them 20 per cent on imports from Cuba. Whereupon forty-three whole-hog tariff republicans, mostly from the beet sugar region, kicked out of the traces, ran amuck on the house ma chine and smashed it into smithereens. On the other hand./the democrats are united upon jthe democratic doctrine of a revenue: tariff' iand" upon -the preposition'to fight the trusts to the death. On the subject of. the Boer war, Mr. Clark said: To our ineffable shame be it said that white England was murdering those brave little re publics we stood by, consenting like iSaul at' the stoning of Stephen. Wherefore? Be cause we are engaged in the same sort of bloody business in the Philippines. N*u Tork Sun Special Service ~ \ . Chicago, June 18.'The chlggers have come as uninvited guests to the com mencement exercises of Northwestern university, and Bvanston is all- scratched up. 'It is admitted without argument by all that a countless army of the wild western invaders has taken the town, and there is talk of abandoning the remaining functions of the commencement program. The chigger is a native of/the far south west, and manifests in ihia nature the strenuous and lawless characteristics of Arizona and the Indian Territory, where he thrives most. A large buck chigger is about one-hun dredth of an inch long, and it is said by scientists l^iat 1,000,000 baby chiggers can be coralled on a half dollar, but they have the faculty of making themselves actually felt from the time they are weaned, which is at the end of the third hour of their existence. . . . . . . . . . .The most notable, trait of the chigger. the one, which causes him to loom lip put of obscurity and become a. "burning issueis his propensity for burrowing under the human skin when foe is in search of diversion. When he performs this operation, the person selected for a habitation, promptly forgets for the mo ment everytning else in the universe. As a pretty co-ed naively expressed it yester day, \ix recounting her own sufferings, "ycu just .simply have to scratch, no mat ter where you are or who is looking.". In view of this fact fivanstonians are looking forward with more, than usual in terest to the contest for the Kirk prize in cratorythe biggest event in that line during the college yearfor if the chig gers happen to get in their work on the contestants while engaged in delivering orations, some of the gestures are likely to be entirely impromptu and without precedent. ' The chiggers found their first lodgment in Bvanston at Heck hall, where the bib lical students congregate. Had they been content with that conquest no one would have cared, much, aside from the "bibs" themselves, for the denizens of Heck hall are not particularly popular in college or town circles^ But they didn't. Instead they soon evinced a great pref erence for feminine society, and in. a wonderfully short time the woman's hall, the cottage and the other girls' quarters were invaded. J L PIRACY AND SMUGGLING E v a c u a t i o n o f Guba Starts V i o l a - t i o n s ot L a w . 1 New York, June lfc-MThe. non-arrival of the United States consul general and.the consuls appointed to.

Since the evacuation of the island by the United States forces " piracy and smug gling along the Cuban: coast have in creased enormously. The collectors of half a dozen ports ar^ constantly request -. ing the assistance of revenue cutters. -The chief offenders are smacks from'Jamaica, Nassua-and Barbadaefc - There arevooly two cutters available.tovguard 2,000 miles Of coast line. Four others, owned gy the government,: are at'present out of com mission. ~ Six smacks, which fwere violating the turtle fishery laws, .have been captured. Many others are under surveillance, and probably will be captured on the arrival of assistance. Several instances are re ported of actual piracy. Many Cuban smacks have been over hauled and robhed of catches of fish, pro visions, water, etc.,.,by. foreigners/who, eventually, are under the impression that the withdrawal of the Americans left the Cubans an easy prey. ,. It Is possible that examples will - be made of those captured. . . \ A KIPLING He H a s t h e People^ o f R o t t i n g d e n n b y t h e E a r s . London, June 18. fhe action of Rudyard Kipling, June 2, in dispersing a mob which threatened the house at- Rottingdean, Essex, of his aunt. Lady BUrne-Jones. a pro-Boer and widow of the late Sir- Edward Burne Jones, the painter, because of her having dis played a banner readtogf "You have killed you have conquered," has caused a local sen sation that shows no irign of abating. When Mr. Kipling, who also lives at Rottingdean, went to the rescue of his aunt and in so do ing shouldered his way--.through the crowd, he delivered a thoroughly "Kiplingesque" oration of the kind the:'people of Rott.ngdcan were not accustomed to hear.Jrom one who hart formed the local rifle -company and had. stirred up local limperialism. to. the boiling point. To show his further disapproval of the attack on his aunt's house, Mr. Kipling has now shut up the drill hall which'he had given to the public. This action has created intense feeling. Mr. Kipling refuses ito express an opinion in regard to the black banner, but he em phatically announces bis disapproval of Rot tlngdean's manner of expressing Its disap proval of it. ' IOWA CENTRAL DEAL S t e a d y B u y i n g of T h i s S t o c k a n d of M. & St. L. Special to The Journal. New York, June 18.Excellent buying has recently materialized in Iowa Central issues and as Minneapolis & St. Louis is also very strong, it is intimated that some very important plan in connection with these two properties will shortly be disclosed. Des Moines & Port Dodge is being bought by investors who believe the annual returns to stockholders will be in creased by the change of control. . " IN A NUTSHELL SECRETLY AND QUIETLY. Coffee SlOTrly a n d S t e a d i l y P o i s o n s S o me P e r s o n s . There is ho doubt that coffee secretly and quietly causes an immense amount of misery to the human race, but in the majority of cases the person does not sus pect the cause of the trouble. - A Virginia lady had an interesting ex periment with coffee poison. She says, "'For about five years I was troubled with Indigestion, weak stomach and palpita tion of the heart so bad that at times. I would.fall and have to be carried into the houBe, Finally I began to have spasms incL suffered untold misery. I tried all kinds.. o i patent medicines and different doctors, only to get temporary relief. I finally gave up all hope of getting well. y stomach was in such condition that everything but stale bread would throw me into spasms. I nearly starved myself but never suspected that coffee was the cause of all the trouble, nor did I have any Idea what the cause was. One day father told me he had been reading how Postum Food Coffee helped so many people who were sick from coffee drinking and he urged me to leave off coffee and try Postum. I said, 'Oh, lather, I cannot try it and do not believe tt would do me any good,' but he per suaded me to try a package. The first making tasted so flat that it made me half sick, but I determined to give it a fair trial, so I read the directions carefully and found that it must be boiled at least fifteen minutes. Well I boiled It 25 minutes, then added some good cream and I tell you it was delicious. I like it better than the ordinary coffee and, of course, stick to It. Well, I have been using it since the 15th of July now, quite two months. I have gained about 25 pounds. I gained six pounds In thirteen weeks, and can eat anything I want and all that I want. My stomach never hurts me. I have gained strength until now I can do my own work and go to church every Sunday. People say, 'You are looking so well, what kind of medicine are you taking?' | tell them I have quit all kinds of medi cine and also coffee and am only using Postum Coffee. You may be sure I will recommend it and "wrill guarantee a cure where the person will boil it long enough and drink enough of it. I would do without a meal for the sake of one. cup of Postum. I could tell a lot more. but space will hot permit, You are at liberty to print this letter and my name al,so for the ben efit of others." Mrs. A. T. Brown, Cen t r a Station. W. Va. v CAPTURED A TOWN V e n e z u e l a n R e v o l u t i o n i s t s M a k i n g R a p i d Head-way. Willemstad,. Island of Curacoa* Friday, June 13.News reached here to-day of an important success of the Venezuelan revo lutionists. After five hours' fighting, on Wednesday, June 11, 1,000 revolutionists, commanded by Generals Riera, Penaloza and Sierralta, captured La Vela de Coro, a seaport on the Gulf of Coro. Of the government forces 27 men were killed and 128 captured. Coro, the capital of the state of Falcon, where Vice President Ayala ia in com mand of the troops of the government, is besieged by the revolutionists. After a revolt of the government troops in the barracks at Ciudad Bolivar, capital of the state of Bolivar, Governor Sarria retreated with his followers to Port Ta blas, on the Orinoco, where President Cas tro had sent him 600 men, with instruc tions to make an attempt to reoccupy Ciudad Bolivar. The plan is here con sidered to be chimerical. The French cruiser Suchet Is at' Caru pano, Venezuela the British cruiser Alert is at Ciudad Bolivar, and the Dutch crui sei* Konigin Regentes has arrived at La gualra.

D. Grover, general counsel of the Great Northern railroad, appeared before the house committee on interstate and foreign com merce yesterday on the bill to amend the interstate commerce act.

The republicans of the senate are in a seri ous controversy oyer the question , of state hood for the territories of New Mexico, Ari zona and Oklahoma. These hills have passed the house and have been pending in the terri tory committee of the senate.
